Sofie Martins: Computing cross-sections from the lattice — A recent shift in lattice thinking paradigms?

A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5)

Extracting scattering amplitudes — and consequently cross-sections — from non-perturbative lattice techniques has seen significant advances in recent years. People have so far relied on Luescher's method, which relates Euclidean finite-volume effects of lattice correlators to infinite-volume Minkowskian Scattering Amplitudes. … Read More

Aleks Smolkovič – Fast and differentiable EFT likelihoods

F1 tea room

The Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) has proven to be a valuable framework for studying a broad class of models beyond the SM containing heavy degrees of freedom. The phenomenology of SMEFT can be developed systematically, incorporating essential effects … Read More

Ana Crnković, “Engineering protein nanopores with genetically encoded noncanonical amino acids”

Seminar room of physics (106) (IJS)

Genetic code expansion enables site-specific incorporation of noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) into proteins, facilitating the introduction of spectroscopic probes, fluorescent labels, photoreactive groups, enhanced stability, and novel chemical reactivity. Despite the successful incorporation of over 150 ncAAs, the broader application … Read More
